The Story Outline

A Country - India is a mixed bag of contradictions and paradoxes. A country with a tenuous hold over its people, power and future: and also one of the top 5 economies of the world. A nuclear power with staggering levels of poverty!

An emerging player in world politics, much to the surprise of the developed world and the envy of its neighbors. India has a population of 1.6 billion: its biggest curses some think and some its possible strength. What if this very population was used as a weapon against India itself?

A Conspiracy - As science and technology breaks new grounds, the face of global terrorism gets ugly. One person who personifies this in his ambitions, intelligence and absolute amorality is Doctor (Sajid Hassan).Doctor is an Ex-CIA agent and the father of modern biological warfare. He might as well have written the handbook on how convert operation ought to work!

He is of the belief that the new war is the proxy war and thus invented myriad ways to push a country to the point of destruction.

Doctor's grand plan for India begins with the sensational bombings at the peace festival in Germany. The second step in India's destruction is his heinous plan to spread the dreaded Ebola virus amongst the general public. He is backed by a powerful nation, which is deeply interested in the absolute of India.

A Common Man - One of the most unlikely candidates is pitted against the unscrupulous Doctor. Aazaan Khan(Sachiin Joshi), a young upright army officer working for RAW (India's Research and Analysis Wing). With a mixed lineage of Afghan and India parents, as part of his duties, gets drawn in to the murky world of espionage only to find his younger brother a suspected terrorist. As Aazaan infiltrates deeper, he hasn't a clue of the price he might have to pay for it. What unfolds is a fast of one man's determination of saving his country against all odds of human defiance.

Afreen (Candice Boucher) a gorgeous sand artist-comes along Aazaan's way when he is vulnerable and broken. She grounds him with human emotions of love that helps him conquer the plot. Aazaan stands in the way of Doctor's plans to destroy India. All he has on his side is the love of a brother and the love for his country.
